SUMMER HOLIDAY AT SURFER'S PARADISE! (GOLD COAST, AUSTRALIA)

We had a 2 weeks family vacation at Australia last Nov to Dec 2013 and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. My personal favourites of the trip were hanging out at Surfer's Paradise and Movie World! Here are some photos of our day at Surfer's Paradise... Surprisingly, the beach was quite quiet except for the soft crash of waves against the sand and the faint call of hungry seagulls. Btw that's the highest building in Australia behind me- the majestic skypoint tower.

Thumbs up for the clean beach and litter-free sand! ;)

My boy and I, with his little penguin :D

"Move Mama, move! Stop taking photos, I want to play at the beach!"

Gorgeous deep blue sky and stunning skyscrapers

Running in the soft golden sand,

and building sandcastles with his little beach toys!

That's me walking by myself and looking all emo. Hahaha.

Shayne's tiny footprints

I was about 2 months pregnant during our trip, and my pregnancy was just a little secret shared between my dearest and me. :)

Feeling the cool sea water and soft sand beneath my feet. Such a calm and peaceful feeling...

Happy couple at the beach! :D

SAY CHEESEEE!!!

That's my dearest walking along the beach. Wonder what was he thinking about? Hmm....

See what I mean? The sparkling sand was so clean and absolutely litter-free, the beautiful blue sky was literally free of any sort of air pollution (the air even smelled really clean!) and the sound of the waves were so refreshing and calming to the ears.... Such a perfect day.

My handsome man ;)

And my handsome boy!

Hahaha this was a funny moment. Papa and Shayne kept shouting and laughing whenever the waves were approaching them.

Jumping up and down :D

And soon, they got tired and decided to take a short rest...

After a few minutes, they started running and laughing again. :D

Our happy son at the beach :)

After about an hour, we decided to head to a nearby restaurant for a quick meal and oh my gosh, the food was so good!!! And in such large portions too! (btw that's Shayne's kid's meal of fish and chips.)

Digging into our delicious meal. Yum Yum!

You see?! Check out Papa's BBQ pork ribs!!!! IT WAS HUGE AND SO SO TASTY!!!!! :D :D :D

Last but not least, here's a short 2 minutes video of our day at Surfer's Paradise. :)

Hope you enjoyed the short video! I can't wait to bring babyboy #2 to the beach one day. It's going to be so much fun to see Shayne and his baby brother playing at the beach together... C'mon baby boy, we're anxiously waiting for your arrival. Your papa, mama, and big brother can't wait to meet you. <3/ps: So somehow...our family's blog is one of the top 10 finalists in the "Best Family Blog" category of Singapore Blog Awards!
